well my saturday was.. wake up at 5am. jack car up to put in some new castrol edge 10-60, tighten manifolds and wind boost out to 20psi...
shame is i got the car up and found that not only was the inside of the front tyre on the mesh, it started chewing through it. having no spare or no lock nut spanner, it put a quick halt on my drive to brissy. must i say i got a 2 new tyres yesterdays, but im pissed i missed the day. i would have given garrys 1.5 a good show for its $$.

Damn Christian! From what I could tell Garry was the only one who made it on the dyno running more than natural boost. 20psi would have been nice. My mate Charles with the t67 soarer that was too low to get on was going to run 25psi

Well Christian you would want to be putting out over 400kw at the wheels to take my car on!!! If you didnt read the post correctly we didnt have any boost and didnt use the NOS.The only chance you had of beating it was on the weekend when it wasnt ready. Now it is a different story

Gary - such a bummer that was! We were all hoping for huge power. You'll have to post up your next dyno run. I got a few pics of your car - int/ext and engine bay. they're on the other link.

They look good Tom. It was a good day except for my problems. The car just wasn't ready but I thought I would give it a go. It just didn't work out but all is fine now.

I dont get out of bed for $50, and if you offer a challenge to someone you dont say "no nitrous". Would you like me to drive in reverse also to give you a bigger chance. Maybe you want me to use the work ute. hehehe

Sounds good then. I was only wanting to race for fun anyway Use N20 and see how we go. My car hasn’t run a good time yet but come Winter time after I have got it sorted things should be different. I am poor uni student so I could do with my $50 anyway :P
Anyone else up for some grudge matches? Ben, Christian?

Nice ride Gary. Sorry Perry and I couldn't find you a SUPA clamp, we were really keen to see yours pull some big numbers. Where did you end up getting the SUPA clamp from?

That sounds right Lew. We are going for the most power we can achive even if the thing blows up. And yes we are looking at knocking off the beast. We had 390 rwkw, and with the mods we have just done we hope to get 440rwkw.
